  • Constructive Criticism
    Apr 16 2026
    This episode originally aired July 22, 2019. The huge amount of blood at the crime scene spoke of the violence of the attack; investigators describe it as "overkill," and it's usually an indication that the victim knew the attacker. Police hoped that, during the struggle, the killer had left some of his own blood - and his DNA - behind. Their challenge was to find it.

  • Headquarters
    Apr 9 2026
    This episode originally aired July 18, 2019. When hunters reported finding a skull in a Texas canyon, police immediately began an investigation. At the scene, they found bits of clothing, a woman's shoe, some small bones and a strand of hair. An anthropologist determined the victim was a Caucasian woman, and that she'd been stabbed repeatedly. A forensic artist reconstructed her face, and the image was released to media. Eventually, police learned who she was. Now all they had to do was find her killer.

I used to love watching the show, so when I saw the podcast, I was really excited. Unfortunately this turned to frustration, it plays a couple of episodes but then goes back to the beginning again. I can’t stop it happening.
